Allergies, colds and other illnesses make us sneeze, cough, blow our nose ... And in recent weeks, the topical subject that touches us the most: Coronavirus.

In order to limit the spread of our microbes, bacteria and other viruses, certain actions called "barriers" can help us. These gestures, what are they? How can they limit the spread of disease? And how can homemade cosmetics help in the production of disinfectant products?

We tell you all about it in our new blog post!

At a time when several epidemics are spreading, in particular the Coronavirus, hydroalcoholic solutions are in short supply.

But what makes a gel effective? How to choose it?

The use of these is not enough, however! It is strongly recommended to wash your hands in clear, soapy water because nothing replaces a good "classic" hand washing. This eliminates the majority of microorganisms . You can make your own soap with the recipe that we have developed.

In the absence of soap and water, the use of a hydroalcoholic solution is recommended in particular in collective environments such as transport, public places ...

But it was certain that following current information, additional solutions would be taken by storm. The consequence was that some retailers in supermarkets or drugstores increased their prices and the shelves were emptied very quickly. Know that the DGCCRF set the prices for 50ml bottles at 2 euros, 100ml at 3 € and 300ml at 5 €. So don't be fooled! What's more, making your hydroalcoholic gels will cost you even less!

To overcome the problems mentioned above, the government has therefore implemented a solution and has chosen to intervene by announcing the official recipe for hydroalcoholic gel.

Is it really possible to make it yourself? Well, yeah !

To be sure you have an antimicrobial solution that works, trust the ANSM recommendations, detailing the essential points.

Also note that ideally you should choose a solution based onethyl alcohol Where isopropyl whose concentration is 90% alcohol. Making your own hydroalcoholic gel also ensures that you avoid an ingredient known as "triclosan"still too present in antibacterial gels which turns out to be a strong endocrine disruptor.
